In a post added to his company's blog, DisplaySearch vice president David Hsieh claims that the next generation of Apple's iDevices are to continue relying on impressive display technology for product innovation. In particular, Hsieh draws attention to the second-generation iPad mini and the eighth-generation iPhone - or rather, the iPad mini 2 and iPhone 6.
Hsieh argues that the iPad mini is set to receive a Retina display later this year, as rumors have indeed indicated. Of course, on the other hand, analysts and commentators have argued that Apple could be "unable" to launch an iPad mini with Retina display this fall (potentially due to battery life problems created by the super high-resolution display).
However, Hsieh is having none of it.
Instead, he envisages a 7.9-inch 2,048 by 1,538 display launching with the second-generation iPad mini in the coming months. As a reminder, an iPad mini 2 announcement is rumored to be scheduled for as early as Oct. 22.
In addition, Hsieh also argues that a 12.9-inch iPad featuring a resolution of 2,732 by 2,048 is in the works, and will launch at some point in 2014. Indeed, this isn't unfamiliar news, either. As we reported last month:

Apple is rumored to be working on a new 12-inch version of the iPad. According to the Taiwanese publication United Daily News, the tech giant is developing the supposed “giant” of a tablet model with partner manufacturer Quanta Computer.
